** Description changed: - I would like to see moblock debs in the Gutsy repositories, they are on - the site below and apparently do work in feisty. It can help prevent - flooding of P2P networks by blocking known hijacked IPs. It can block - many different lists of IPs. I consider it a prerequisite for - downloading anything on untrusted networks. + I would like to see PeerGuardian Linux in the official repositories. + It's not a good fit for the App model as it requires access to things + like iptables to work. - "MoBlock is a linux console application that blocks connections from/to - hosts listed in a file in peerguardian format (guarding.p2p). It uses - iptables ipqueue userspace library and it is very light in resource - usage (cpu, ram)." + "moblock-deb provides Debian packages of PeerGuardian Linux (pgl): + PeerGuardian is a privacy oriented firewall application. It blocks + connections to and from hosts specified in huge blocklists (thousands or + millions of IP ranges). Its origins lie in targeting aggressive IPs + while you use P2P." - How to get it working (currently, adds repositories) : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=192559 - Corresponding website with debs: http://moblock-deb.sourceforge.net/ - Moblock website: http://moblock.berlios.de/ + Upstream: https://sourceforge.net/projects/peerguardian/ + Debian packages: moblock-deb.sourceforge.net and https://launchpad.net/~jre-phoenix/+archive/ppa + Debian RFP: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=578192 + + Updates from C#11.. Thanks!
